Credit One Bank credit card rip off

On 12/1/07 I received a bill from CreditOne Bank for a Visa credit card I applied for. I never received the card, but did receive a bill for $74.75 (enrollment fee). When I called the phone number on the statement, [protected], the message immediately went into the card activation mode. I pressed option 2, which was suppose to interrupt the activation, and put me through to a representative. Instead, I received a message stating they were "closed for the holiday". I am not aware of any holiday that falls on 12/3/07. I then went on their website and called every phone number they had listed. EVERY ONE OF THEM BROUGHT ME TO THE CARD ACTIVATION MESSAGE. When I pressed option 2 on these numbers, I was again returned to the card activation message. Talk about a circle jerk. I have a really bad feeling about this company, and I get the impression I have been scammed. I sent them a letter today telling them to cancel my account immediately. I will see what happens.

Because I never used the credit card, I called them and they told me my card was cancelled for not use, so I got rid of it. After that they sent me a card statement with $ 77.72. ?
WHAT A FRAUD !

I have received a 100 calls from Credit One Bank, [protected]. I finally called them back. They knew my name and, obviously, my phone number. They claimed I owed on a card I am the Primary Card Owner of. I have never heard of them. Then, they asked if someone else in my house got it in my name. There are two of us, and no we did not. Then they wanted my social, address, husband's name. I said, you obviously have all that since you are calling me on the card YOU issued and he has the job! He said, I can't file a fraud report unless you tell me all of your information. I am so mad and fed up with the call after call after call, I want to change my phone number. They have a way of making different cities appear on your caller i.d. when they call. I, then block, each and every one. NOW, they are calling with NO Caller I.D. I changed my phone to ring only if MY CONTACTS call, and NOW they are STILL able to leave messages. The same Middle Eastern man, claiming to be Alan Richter, calls every time and then when you call him back, he claims NOT to be HIM! This is driving me insane and it should be illegal. What in the world is a person to do about these bogus, scamming people?

Beware of Credit One Credit cards. In the contract you accept, there is a clause that they will charge you a monthly fee even if there is no balance on the card. If you don't pay the fee on time, you get a $29 late fee...those fees for nothing add up quickly!
Then when you phone for assistance, and you FINALLY get a human, you are transferred repeatedly and they will NOT remove the fees and late fees for keeping the card open!...

I applied for their credit card trying to build/establish my credit. However just yesterday i received a bill for $74.75 which is for the enrollment and annual fees. I thought it was funny that i received the bill without having received the card first, how are you going to charge me for something i dont have nor something i've yet to even activate.I managed to call them and actually speak with somebody, however that person could barely speak a word of english and from what i got out of the conversation i was told they mail the cards separately for "security purposes"

You would figure i would have received the card before getting the bill

I also received a bill from them for $74.75 I haven't gotten a card and if I did I would not activate it because I will not pay them for a credit card. There are banks that have no fee credit card if you are in good credit standing.

Well, I should have known better than to take this card, I suppose. I took it with the idea of rebuilding my credit.

What I've noticed is an increase in fees...the fee for paying your bill online is noe almost $8.00.

Now, I see a fee of $5.00 for my monthly annual fee payment. Perhaps I'm blind, but I don't recall seeing this before.

Then, just TRY to get them on the phone. Apparently, it can't be done. I did find their corporate number. Perhaps you'd like to try it as well. It probably won't work either but here it is:

I've had a similar experience... I applied for the card, recieved the card, which required activation within 14 days... I decided I didn't want the card, figured I'd wait it out, and got a bill 2 days later for the activiation fee... called customer svc., avoiding the activation #, and was unable to speak to a live rep... kept asking me for my card #. I gave in, since this wasn't the activation #, and since the phone prompts gave no indication that it was... well, sure enough I was rewarded with a a recorded message stating the card was activated, but I was given the option to cancel by pressing "2" - I do not know any way to speak with a live operator, I'm afraid... I'll try writing, to see if there's anyway to make this card disappear.

Credit One Bank charges before you activate the card!

I received an invitation for the credit one card. Took them over 10 days from the date they said the card had been mailed. I activated the account by phone. Then I went online to set up the account. I noticed that they had already had sent a bill for charges before the account was even activated. Called the 800 number that they have and they tell me the account is not activated until they say so. Told them that was fine cancel the effective immediately and that I was notifying a lawyer about this. Please do not do business with this company. I am also going to notify the attorney general for the State of Nevada and the BBB about this company.

all you have it all wrong, credit one bank is not a scam, when you get the card or what ever, the paper that says "terms and conditions" yea your suppose to read that, obviously many of you just discard it, like if you read the terms and conditions in the first place you wouldent have a problem, As for the charges before actv the card AGAIN if you read the terms and conditions you would understand that if you dont actv your card YOU DONT HAVE TO PAY A FLIPPIN CENT! the fees are a one time only enrollment fee of eather $69 or $39 and also an anual fee of $69 that is broken down to $5,75 per month, ALSO you dont have to pay the full amnt at once, you only have to pay $20 minimun per month, and it prob sounds like i work for them but i dont.. just to clear that up! im just sick of all these complaints of credit one bank ITS NOT THERE FAULT ITS YOURS FOR NOT READING THE DAMN PAPERS! Goodbye!

Credit One Bank is incredible when it comes to scamming you. A few days ago I received a pre-approved letter with a card that looks like a real one. I completely ignored it until today when I received a bank statement from them stating my activation fees and other. Should I believe them? I did not activate a thing and they're already charging me. This' got to be a scam or a case of identity theft.

I have had the dis pleasure of dealing with this credit card company that does NOT try to work with you for anything! They said I charged a card I received in the mail back in april of last year well over 700 dollars when the credit limit was only 200 dollars! And may I remind you I did not charge more then half of the charges---I had called and reported it stolen -they said dont worry about it we will handle it-WELL GUESS WHAT THEY DIDNT HANDLE IT ! And they still are doing nothing about it! It is really starting to piss me off--- I have never received a bill for this amount but yet it is on my credit report! I am still trying find out if they even intend on doing anything about it...or if they are expecting me to pay for charges i didnt do?! And on top of it--- I had the fraud protection plan!I thought that is suppose to work if you have it and the card gets stolen and used!

I wish somone would help me figure this ### out! So it comes off my credit report!

Credit One Bank processing payments on time!

I sent two payments 8 days ago from Columbus, OH to Credit One's payment address and another to another bank with the same zip code. This being both banks should of gotten their payments the same day. The other bank did get the payment and posted it on time 4 days after I mailed it. As of today 8 days later Credit One Bank has not posted my payment and even added a late charge to my account the same day the payment is due. Something funny is going on with this company because when I call them they are rude and talk to you like you are trash. I demanded to speak to a supervisor and he was some kid that treated you the same way. Customer service is very poor and they act like they don't even care about your business and concerns. They are more concerned about their money. I have been rebuilding my credit for years and never been late to anything and now this comes up. I refuse to be taken down by this FRAUDULENT bank and their practices. I have decided to contact an attorney and pursue legal action against Credit One Bank. I will keep this posted as information becomes available.

I am so sorry that everyone here is having problems with Credit One bank. I must be one of the lucky ones because I have had the card since June 2007 and they have increased my credit limit twice already (a customer now for 7 mos). I pay my bills through my bank bill pay (my bank pays them via EFT) and I haven't had a problem at all. Perhaps its because I pay the C1 bills through my online bill pay, and I dont mail them a check.

Good luck to everyone - I hope that everything gets resolved.

Oh my god! I recently accepted my offer online yesterday! I wonder if it will happen to me. Do you guys have any suggestions when the time comes that I will pay my bills? Is it better to pay in check?...I think credit one cardholders should file a Class Lawsuit against this fraudulent Credit card company! thanks to all of your feedback about this stupid company!

The same thing happened to me. I've only had the card for a few months and everything was going fine until I tried to make an online payment a few days before the due date. I was given a confirmation number which I printed out. After the due date, I noticed that the payment was never processed and they charged me a late fee and an over the limit fee. When i called Credit One they told me that I entered my debit card number incorrectly. I told them that the number is automatically stored in their system and that I had not changed it since I opened the account which had always worked. He then put me on hold for about ten minutes and when he got back on the phone he told me that he was mistaken. It wasn't my debit number, but the security code on the back. However, there is NO where to enter that information in their system. Liars! They deliberately do not process your payment until after the due date so that they can charge you astronomical fees.

These guys are crooks!

When I finally spoke with a representative on the phone, I immediately paid the entire balance and demanded that they close my account. I want absolutely nothing to do with this credit card company. They will continue to scam and charge you fees that are not warranted.

If you have this card, do anything you can to pay it off and close it immediately.

Good luck!

I pay my bills through bill pay an online banking feature linked to my checking account. For about 6 straight months I received numerous late fees and couldn't figure out what was going on because I pay everything on time. Well I finally decided to pay off the balance on my credit card and after 18 days of nothing being posted to my account, I contacted my bank who informed me that they changed their mailing address. They changed the mailing address so that any payments being mailed to them would have to be rerouted, forwarded or returned to sender justifying a late fee! I am actually on hold right now with Credit One Bank to see what BS they are going to tell me now!

However, I did cancel my account last week.

Thank you for those that posted comments. I was interested in getting this card, so I went online to fill out my application. I put in the website address and a search engine popped up. Well, I thought I typed something wrong, so I put in the address again... Same search engine popped... I don't know alot about computers, but that just didn't seem right to me. I went to google and put in Credit One and this is what I came to. Thank you for saving me from getting p*ssed off down the line... I have very SERIOUS anger management issues, so reading your comments let me know that if I did business with these people I might one day be on the news.

Credit One Bank payment problems on website

I have a Credit One credit card and I am very glad it has a very low balance and I will be paying them off and cutting it up. I believe this is a company owned by a bank in India. Talking to them on the phone makes me very uncomfortable as their arrogance leads me to believe they are scamming people. I have yet to speak to someone that does not have and accent. I made a payment online on June 22 and today is the 24 and there is not even a pending payment noted. I do have a reference number but with the way they do business I doubt that will matter. I plan on reporting this company to my state banking and finance government as well as the Security Fraud dept.

This company opened an account in my name that I had no knowledge about, now this information is on my credit! I have sent them several letters, an identity theft report, and a police report, NOTHING has been done! why is this acceptable, as an american consumer I should not be held liable to financial damages resulting from identity theft.

they claim the account is closed and was closed almost a year ago. However they are letting the account sit and still collect late fees and interest instead of actually closing out the card. this is against the law.

Credit one bank has always sent me an envelope (Bill) as a reminder to make a payment and given me ample time to do so... If they are late giving me a reminder... Naturally I will be late... It appears as though they have this all figured out and practice "not sending the payment envelope" resulting in an extra overdue charge... Vultures!!!

This company is another one of those credit card companies that thinks that they can squeeze blood from a turnip. We have been trying to pay these people every single month and calling them and working with them and still they charge our credit card fees that surpass the amount of money that we pay. This creates a never-ending debt that can never be repaid...
